[0002] In the field of machining, especially in the machining of high-precision and complex-shaped workpieces, the stability and adaptability of the tool are crucial. Although traditional rigid toolholders provide sufficient strength and durability, they often lack sufficient flexibility when facing changing cutting conditions, which may lead to reduced machining accuracy, increased surface roughness and shortened tool life.

[0003] To address these issues, floating toolholder technology was developed. The floating toolholder design allows the tool to float freely to a certain extent to adapt to the irregularities of the workpiece and changes in cutting forces, thereby improving machining quality and tool life. However, the connection between the existing floating toolholder and the tool end is not stable enough, resulting in reduced reliability under high-speed or high-load machining conditions.
